Is war a biological necessity? As regards the earliest cultures the answer is emphatically negative. The blow of the poisonous dart from behind a bush, to murder a woman or a child in their sleep, is not pugnacity. Nor is head-hunting, body-snatching, or killing for food instinctive or natural.

-- Bronislaw Malinowski
Phi Betta Kappa Address, Harvard University 1936

What? No, not all quotations on the ONT are smart. This one is an example of a pretty fvcking stupid one. But then, it's Harvard, so you shouldn't be surprised.

Here is An Incomplete List Of Complete Bullshit Websites, from "SCIBABE," who usually makes me chuckle, and almost always has a nice, logical perspective on things.

******

Civil Forfeiture is about as anti-freedom as it gets. The jack-booted thugs of government simply steal stuff from people who can't defend themselves. And look who doesn't like it! As usual, Justice Thomas is spot-on. Of course since he strayed off of the plantation he is vilified by the Left and even soft liberals; people who would normally agree with a Black Supreme Court Justice who is on the side of the little guy. Justice Thomas's Doubts About Civil Forfeiture
Accordingly, Thomas strongly signaled that he thinks the long-standing deference to law-enforcement agencies is untenable. "In the absence of this historical practice, the Constitution presumably would require the Court to align its distinct doctrine governing civil forfeiture with its doctrines governing other forms of punitive state action and property deprivation," he surmised. He left unsaid that such a realignment would almost certainly narrow forfeiture's scope.

The justice's discomfort with forfeiture has built slowly since his early tenure. In 1993, two years after he joined the Court, he noted in a partial concurrence in U.S. v. James Daniel Good Real Property that he was "disturbed by the breadth of new civil-forfeiture statutes." He and the other justices ruled in favor of the plaintiff, James Good, whose home in Hawaii had been seized by federal marshals without notice or legal proceedings almost five years after he'd completed a prison sentence for drug possession.

I asked Garrett for some input on great covers. That was humbling. Here is a wild one that he suggested.

Richard Feynman was no Al Gore, but he had the rarest of minds; he could see through bullshit better than most. I wonder what Feynman would have thought of today's enviro-religious mania: AGW.

Here's a hint, courtesy of Andrew Branca's Law Of Self Defense blog:
Richard Feynman "Cargo Cult Science"
Just read it....the linked YouTube video is someone reading the speech, and he has an irritating voice.

But even today I meet lots of people who sooner or later get me into a conversation about UFOS, or astrology, or some form of mysticism, expanded consciousness, new types of awareness, ESP, and so forth. And I've concluded that it's not a scientific world.

By the way, Branca's book is excellent, and well worth a read if you carry or even have weapons in the home for self defense.

From Andrew:

In terms of a discount on the book for the moron community, we have a moron-specific 20% discount on the book permanently in place: just use discount code AOSHQ at checkout. That discount code never expires, but it applies only to the book.

Oh...for Fvck's sake!
who the fvck knows.jpg

I get that there are going to be fashion trends that don't please me. Hell, most of the 1970s-...uh....until now....are awful in some respects. I freely admit that I am a fuddy-duddy, and anything other than a button-down and a pair of khakis is too God-damned hipster for me. But at some point, the fashion designers of the world lost their minds and started doing this kind of crap. Fine; blur the lines between man and woman. I get it. You want to be provocative. But there is an aesthetic that must be respected. Call it sexy, call it interesting, call it whatever you want. But when it looks like you are an asshole and just doing it for its shock value, it's gone too far.

As for the model? Dude...either shave your legs or go to the gym!

******

I really like punk...at least some of it. But the idea that it was the vanguard of some socio-political change is laughable. It's music. Not philosophy.
Paul McCartney, David Bowie, Cliff Richard And More Explain Punk In 1979
At first it was shocking, because until then you'd known the status quo. It hoped to be shocking and in some ways it was. But the thing was that the music was great and suddenly realised, after a day or two of horror - [ADOPTS POSH VOICE] 'My God! What's going on! What's happening to our England?!' - that these guys were just shaking it up and it needed shaking up...

2 Queering the Census

Civil liberties to the Left, much like democracy, is but a tram ride to travel upon until they arrive at their immanetized eschaton destination. No clearer example of that can be seen then when it comes to sexuality and gender, specifically the demand that the government breaches privacy to get involved "in the bedroom": To wit, the demand by some, including Sens. Tom Carper (D-DE) and Kamala Harris (D-CA) who want the Federal government to query every person in the country about their sexual orientation and gender identity (i.e. "SOGI").

'In an appropriate case, we should reconsider our qualified immunity jurisprudence'
But along the way, the decision provoked some promising skepticism from Justice Clarence Thomas about the doctrine of qualified immunity (a doctrine that protects government officials from liability for unconstitutional conduct and which I've previously posted about here and here).

Good point re Punk. Always rolled my eyes when listening to the people banging on about it being a "political" thing. YOU and your band might be injecting politics into it, but that's not what is was about. It's just rock n roll. The only philosophy that mattered was the unleashing of the garage bands, not playing by the music industry's rules and rocking out some good tunes.

31 And just because it seems like a forgotten concept . . .

If you ask me to name the proudest distinction of Americans, I would choose - because it contains all the others - the fact that they were the people who created the phrase "to make money." No other language or nation had ever used these words before; men had always thought of wealth as a static quantity - to be seized, begged, inherited, shared, looted or obtained as a favor. Americans were the first to understand that wealth has to be created. -Ayn Rand

37 Civil Forfeiture is about as anti-freedom as it gets.

It's not the civil forfeiture, itself, that is the problem. It's that it can be done without any trial or conviction. And it can be done and then the victim is slapped with a gag order not to talk to anyone about it. It's insane.

And the related insanities of "legal fictions" that let government "arrest property" should be absolutely wiped off the face of the Earth, along with everyone who thought of this ridiculous crap and everyone who supports this idiocy.

And my cash is my cash. No one has any right to know if take $30,000 out of my bank account. Period. There is nothing to discuss about this. My money is my money and I have the right to have my money however I want to have it.

39 Willowed

I think any state that declares bankruptcy and wants the other 49 states to bail it out needs to be sent back to Territorial status.

Yes Territorial Status. No US Senators or Representatives. The US President appoints a Territorial Governor. They cannot be readmitted as a state until they have balanced their state books for five years, and paid back everything they were lent by other states or the feds.

You elected the idiots that screwed your state up, you own it. You get treated like little children until you learn to act like adults. You do not get a say in running the federal government until you can run your own damned state responsibly. Will it hurt? Damned straight! Stupid should hurt. Irresponsible should hurt. Electing crooks should hurt. How many Illinois Governors are in jail? How many Representatives are in jail?

IL is corrupt. That is why it is broke.

Should we petition our Congressmen to make this law?

Getting rid of two Senators and a bunch of Reps would increase their power, wouldn't it?

More power, more "Donations."

From the last thread, someone mentioned Illinois going bankrupt. I remember reading an article about this:

There is no legal mechanism for bankruptcy of a state. It has to do with the doctrine that states are still sovereign under the federal system. There is a federal system for municipal bankruptcies, called Chapter 9.

CBD, you make one error in fashion. You think a man should dress like a man (Comfortable, sensible- depending on his work that could be jeans and a t-shirt or a three piece.) This is attractive to women (shows the man is sensible, probably holds down a job.) I think almost all fashion is about being attractive to the preferred partner- it's biology.

These dudes are dressing to collect a paycheck. Do you think that poor bastard model would be caught dead in that if he was not getting a bit hungry? It's the designers who are making these clothes to appear attractive to their preferred mates: gay liberal assholes (no pun intended.)

The "American Community Survey" for which a subset of households are selected at Census time is already infamous for asking very odd and intrusive things.

Members of the serf class! Bitter-clinging wretches! Insubordinate scum! We, your far-sighted beneficient overlords in government, don't give a damn what your thoughts or policy preferences are. But, we nevertheless want to know everything about you, in ridiculous detail, down to how many toilets there are in your residence. Now, you *will* comply under pain of federal law, imprisonment, and fines. Begin the survey!

177 Jim, does a man in your position hunker down or hunker up? Not sure how close you are to sea level...

Posted by: Piercello, on the road at June 20, 2017 10:24 PM (WbaUv)



"Hunker Down" is a rather much abused turn of phrase, made infamous by the Harris County Judge in countless hurricane commercials over the years.

Being a sailor, I batten the hatches, thus avoiding either of the unpleasant hunkerings.

But you can be damn sure, I'll also park the F-150 up on the 3rd deck of the Frost Bank parking garage, just to be sure.

The ground the house sits on here, is 5 ft. above sea level. The floor is 4ft. 9in. above said ground.

Had three inches of water in the house, after Hurricane Ike.

This storm doesn't seem to have that kind of potential, thankfully.

But I'll still gratefully receive any bourbon shipments! Hurricane Party, yayyyy!

I once bought a book that was completely printed upside down and reversed, including the covers. Completely unreadable. Exchanged it for one that was printed right-side up. The clerk must not have been as much of a reader as I, because he didn't see the problem, but he made the exchange anyway.

I liked Gangs of New York. Good movie. And the actors all did well. But good actors are a dime a dozen. They are all easily replaceable. Sure, they get reputations and some can guarantee some box office ... but actual skilled actors are the easiest thing in the world to find. After all, most of the acting performances in a movie come down to the directors and how good they are, anyway.

255 "How many Illinois Governors are in jail?"

If you mean "right now", only one, Rod R. "Hairdo" Blagojevich (D).

If you mean "ever", I count four: Otto Kerner (D), Dan Walker (D), George Ryan (R) and the abovementioned Blago. (Though you might want to give Walker a Roger Maris style asterisk, because he went to jail long after he was OUT of office for stuff that wasn't related to his time in office.)

Finally, in the "really should have gone to jail but didn't" category is Len Small (R), a two-term guv back in the Roaring 20s era who is regarded by some as the all time most corrupt IL governor. He actually was indicted and put on trial for bribery and other stuff while in office, but the jury acquitted him.

Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara

I received a call from 'The President's Office' at Intuit. I had written a letter explaining that I was unhappy when they dropped support for Win 98. This was quite a while ago, obviously.

First, the caller "couldn't find my email". I explained that would be because it was an actual letter...on paper. She went away for a while looking for the letter.

When she found it, she said "I see that you are unhappy that we dropped Win 98 support".

"Yes", I replied.

"Well", she said, "it's true that we no longer support Win 98". Then...a period of silence.

"Uh", sez I, "can you tell me why we are having this conversation?"

"Well", she says, "we're very concerned about customer satisfaction."

280 Ossoff didn't matter.

And then the Left said he mattered, and many of their dollars went to Ossoff, because the Left does not spend their dollars wisely, but only emotionally.

And then he mattered, because they wanted the Narrative, and had made him so pumped with dollars that he started to swell up and matter.

And then he failed, and the Narrative was still in ruins, and the CNN will talk about other things, to keep the Narrative alive.

It is a good day.

I remember reading that Day-Lewis turned seriously to acting only after he couldn't get an apprenticeship as a cabinet maker because he didn't have any experience. He eventually learned and is an avid cabinet and furniture maker.

I respect any man who is skilled at working with his hands.

Also, Day-Lewis actively avoids the party scene and all the trappings of fame. There's a lot to be said for that.

580 Life, liberty, and property -- That was the alternative proposal to 'pursuit of happiness' in the DoI. Several other nations do use some version of 'property' in their charters, and the words do appear in our Constitution under the 5th and 14th Amendments:

An alternative phrase "life, liberty, and property", is found in the Declaration of Colonial Rights, a resolution of the First Continental Congress. The Fifth Amendment and Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution declare that governments cannot deprive any person of "life, liberty, or property" without due process of law.

So yes, property is intimately associated with pursuit of happiness as a natural right.

604 Can anyone here give me any advice about fixing an electric golf cart that won't let the charger charge its batteries? It seems to me the "computerized" charge controller, which is on-board the cart, is not letting current from the charger, which is a pretty "dumb" unit, get to the battery bank.

How many batteries are in the cart? A pair of six volts? Four of them?

Why not just bypass the charge controller and connect the charger directly ... or buy a smart charger and hook it up?

The idea is intriguing. But I want to see what kind of precision accuracy I can wrest out of such a setup.

With conventional sights, I can 10-ring my Model 28 S&W at seven yards, from the low-ready, in about 1.2~1.3 seconds.

Or slowing it down a bit, fire a clean 500 by 50x, double action, in about ten minutes*.

629 Can you put a voltmeter right across the battery and see what the voltage is when it supposed to be charging, and compare to the output of the charger itself?

Can you see how much current is flowing, what direction, etc? The DC Hall-effect clamp on probes are great for this. Don't have to break the circuit, and they can handle high currents.

Posted by: publius, the Persistent Poperin Pear at June 21, 2017 12:11 AM (8O3HH)

Batteries, which were charged at a shop, show 48.8 volts open-circuit. The charger puts out 56 volts open circuit, which sounds about right. But no current flows.

I just watched a video on how to bypass the on-board computer on a club Car, which is what this thing is. It would appear the OBC is faulty, and not allowing the charger to charge the batteries. Or else it's working properly, and because the batteries are fully-charged, it's not allowing it to charge because of that.

I now know what I have to look for. Whoda thunk youtube would have that?

654 Officially, at 100% charge, a 12V battery should be 12.7V (it varies with temperature a bit, decreasing with temperature IIRC). At 50% charge, it will be about 12.3V

So, 48.8V would be about 12.2V per 12V battery. Your voltmeter needs to be accurate enough to depend on the 3rd decimal, though. And make sure the "surface charge" is bled off.

I'd bypass the control mechanism and see how much current it pulled on a regular charger.

Four fully-charged batteries should meter 50.4 volts, right? In which case, the charger should come on to bring them back up. I will try bypassing the OBC, and see if that does the trick. If so, owner can buy a new computer, and I can install it for him. Easy enough to do.

I saw an outfit at the Portland Swap Meet a couple of years ago peddling a MIG welder that ran off two 12-volt batteries. It was pretty slick, but you could get only about 5 to 10 minutes of welding time on a charge (which is really quite a bit, for most repairs). But they wanted nearly $2000 for the rig, which was way too high for what it is. I ran a bead with it. Very slick. But too many $$$

13.2 volts is right. I was wrong with 12.6, brain fart, I guess.. I will bypass the charge controller tomorrow, and see what happens. Owner brought two chargers; one doesn't charge, and the other pops its breaker in 2 seconds once plugged in. I think the rectifier bridge in that one might be toast.

Most polling is bullshit. They really can't get "random" samplings, even if they actually tried, and their methods for adjusting the samples for 3000 different variables of known and unknown type is nothing short of pure witchcraft. Polling companies are just lucky when they happen onto a correct prediction - other than obvious blowouts, which your average man on the street can also predict with as much accuracy as the polling orgs.

751 Kudos to Bono and U2 for keepin' it classy, offering well-wishes to Steve Scalise and the other shooting victims, and stating that folks of all political persuasions are welcome at their concerts. How refreshing.

While my fandom faded decades ago, I was one of the very first U2 fans in North America. Growing up in Buffalo, we could pull in CFNY 102.1 out of Toronto. CFNY was well-known for playing the very latest British imports, and one night I heard this song called "I Will Follow." I was obsessed with the song so the very next day I went down to the nearest Record Theater (their last store, sadly, closed this very week) and searched through the import bins for a band I thought was called "You Too" based on the DJ's announcement.

After coming up empty, I asked the clerk if he had ever heard of "You Too" and could he get me a copy? The clerk called around and found one lone copy in the import bins at another Record Theater, told me "it's 'U2'" and had it delivered to the local store and held for me at the front counter.

Imagine a time when a U2 album was so rare you had to jump through those kinds of hoops! I still have that import copy of their debut album, "Boy."

753 And "I Will Follow" if it is the one I am thinking is a great song!

The chiming guitar drew me in! I'd never heard anything like it before.

There's this sort of WNY local rock urban legend regarding U2. On their first US tour, I believe it was 1979, U2 was booked into a small live music venue south of Buffalo. Long gone (I don't think the building even exists anymore) but one of those sort of legendary local places. The venue infamously mis-advertised them as "V2."

Long ago, I read a funny interview with the venue's former manager, who said that over the years, upon learning that he had managed the place, hundreds and hundreds of people have claimed to have attended that show. He said he would just nod politely but he knew that 99.9% of them were full of shit because there was a major snowstorm that night, the band was completely unknown, and the venue didn't even get their name right so there were no more than 25 people in the joint that night, mostly regulars, and he personally knew most of them.

I myself have spoken with many folks over the years who claim to have attended the famous "V2" show.

754 Justice Thomas' forfeiture views are consistent with his eminent domain views in "Kelo" (they should have called it "kilo" because the Court was obviously high on the most addicting drug of all: power).

A Constitutional Giant in the Land of Lilliput:

"Long ago, William Blackstone wrote that "the law of the land... postpones even public necessity to the sacred and inviolable rights of private property,"

The Framers embodied that principle in the Constitution, allowing the government to take property not for "public necessity," but instead for "public use." Defying this understanding, the Court replaces the Public Use Clause with a Public Purpose Clause (or perhaps the "Diverse and Always Evolving Needs of Society" Clause), a restriction that is satisfied, the Court instructs, so long as the purpose is "legitimate" and the means "not irrational".

This deferential shift in phraseology enables the Court to hold, against all common sense, that a costly urban-renewal project whose stated purpose is a vague promise of new jobs and increased tax revenue, but which is also suspiciously agreeable to the Pfizer Corporation, is for a "public use."

I cannot agree. If such "economic development" takings are for a "public use," any taking is, and the Court has erased the Public Use Clause from our Constitution, as Justice O'Connor powerfully argues in dissent. I do not believe that this Court can eliminate liberties expressly enumerated in the Constitution and therefore join her dissenting opinion.

Regrettably, however, the Court's error runs deeper than this. Today's decision is simply the latest in a string of our cases construing the Public Use Clause to be a virtual nullity, without the slightest nod to its original meaning. In my view, the Public Use Clause, originally understood, is a meaningful limit on the government's eminent domain power. Our cases have strayed from the Clause's original meaning, and I would reconsider them.

The Court has elsewhere recognized "the overriding respect for the sanctity of the home that has been embedded in our traditions since the origins of the Republic," when the issue is only whether the government may search a home. Yet today the Court tells us that we are not to "second-guess the City's considered judgments," when the issue is, instead, whether the government may take the infinitely more intrusive step of tearing down petitioners' homes.

Something has gone seriously awry with this Court's interpretation of the Constitution. Though citizens are safe from the government in their homes, the homes themselves are not. Once one accepts, as the Court at least nominally does, that the Public Use Clause is a limit on the eminent domain power of the Federal Government and the States, there is no justification for the almost complete deference it grants to legislatures as to what satisfies it.

When faced with a clash of constitutional principle and a line of unreasoned cases wholly divorced from the text, history, and structure of our founding document, we should not hesitate to resolve the tension in favor of the Constitution's original meaning. For the reasons I have given, and for the reasons given in Justice O'Connor's dissent, the conflict of principle raised by this boundless use of the eminent domain power should be resolved in petitioners' favor. I would reverse the judgment of the Connecticut Supreme Court.".......

As Reagan said, "You can't be for big government, big taxes, and big bureaucracy and still be for the little guy." Or Big Law, either.

Liberal Judicial Activism is great--if you're just tired of freedom and self-government and you simply wish to be told what to do. Or if you just want to short-circuit the rules so that you always win.

But for real Americans, its the kind of arrogant authoritarianism that already led us to rebel once in 1776.

We don't need another Revolution--we need the one we already had.

U2 really does have a distinctive sound. And if it weren't for the aggressive politicizing I would be much happier with them.

But Bono has made free-market noises about Africa, and he puts his money where his mouth is, so I guess it could be worse.

IIRC, Bono was probably one of the only musicians to give Pres. Bush props for his fight against AIDS in Africa (with American taxpayer money).

But 'shut up and play' should be the first music lesson anybody learns.

758 755 - U2 really does have a distinctive sound. And if it weren't for the aggressive politicizing I would be much happier with them

Have they done overtly political stuff? I lost touch with them around the time of Achtung Baby. A relative gave me a bunch of their later CD's and I probably listened to those once or twice.

Just the other day their bassist apparently said something moonbattish iirc, and maybe it was in response to that kerfuffle, but Bono stated from the stage: "Whoever you voted for, you are welcome here. We will find common ground."

So, no Roger Waters-styled assaults on Republicans at U2 shows.

762 Back in those days I had this great old Supro tube amp (same make and model that Jimmy Page used on the first Zep album) with the wickedest reverb I've ever heard on a guitar amp, period. I could play that chiming, reverb-drenched "I Will Follow" riff perfectly. I kept playing the record for my bandmates, then demonstrating how perfectly I could play it, but they weren't interested. We were a "heavy" band, covering lots of Sabbath, Priest, Rush and the like and they were always suspicious of my "new-wave" leanings. It frustrated me that I could nail that sound but the guys vetoed the song.

Turned on CNN this morning to see the sad puppy faces. But as you note, they were already back to talking about Russia.

The anchor (whoever the hell he is) starts talking about how Trump never even asks about the probe into Russian interference, Spicer won't answer questions about it, etc. How horrible that the President is not even interested in the fact that RUSSIA HACKED the election!

And then he shows a clip of Sessions saying that he has never had any briefings about Russia and the president has never asked him about it. That clip was taken from Sessions responding to questions at his hearing on whether or not he had truly recused himself and had honored that recusal.

LIVs would just swallow that report hook, line and sinker.
